2 guys from lower hill court fishing the middle hill beat today by wading up the river. We were told to ‘go find a bailiff’ if we wanted to do something about it.

Disappointing and poor behaviour.

Is there an overlap of the 2 beats, or no signs on the other bank?

Fished late evening in the very last swim on the road side. Conditions were difficult with water levels being low. I baited up in the morning then again when I arrived but didn't fish for an hour. Had a nice Barbel within half an hour of my first cast then two chub then a Barbel to end the session. Fished approx 3 hrs.
Fished were not weighed but I'd guess the Barbel were aroun 3lb-5lb with Chub slightly less.

2 Barbel, 2 Chub

Fished the road sides last swim as water levels are low.
Baited up with hemp, pellets, corn and spam in pre-soaked balls of groudbait.
Fished Spam on the hook for around 3hrs which produced 2 Barbel and 2 Chub.

Only 2 of us actually made the trip because of the weather and water conditions and the other 2 of us blanked. Not fair to judge this stretch under present conditions for our first trip but it is a difficult place to find and with little water in the river and a continuous canoe traffic on the day we were there it was not surprising we caught nothing.
